Hello and welcome! Finding a therapist can be hard. I want to commend you for taking that first step. I approach therapy with a non-judgmental and trauma-informed lens. I use a client-centered approach and believe that the body and nervous system holds memories from our past. I strive to help you work through those memories in whichever way you feel is most comfortable. My goal is to create a safe environment that allows you to prosper. I use a variety of different interventions, honoring that you know yourself best and what helps one person, may not help another in the same way.

My ideal client may need help with confidence, relationships, or learning who they are. They aim to reduce symptoms of clinical diagnoses and work with me to see progress in their lives. This client would want to learn more about themselves and improve their relationships with others and with themselves. They would be a motivated and insightful client who attends sessions regularly and comes prepared with topics to discuss. I would help this client by listening to them and their thoughts, offering support, and building a rapport with them.

Life happens to all of us; stressors are inevitable, unresolved feelings may arise and it can all be just a little bit overwhelming. Despite our best efforts we may find ourselves overly stressed, alone, anxious, or just tired. Whether it’s dealing with a transition, a loss, a tragedy, a relationship, or just the daily highs and lows, we all deserve a place to decompress and process what life throws at us. Maybe this is a tough season for you, or maybe you just need support as you work on your goals. Therapy should act as both a safe space filled with warmth and compassion, and a brave space that challenges and empowers.

I appreciate the time you have taken to look up my profile, as the process of finding a therapist can be daunting. But it is well worth the effort when you find one with whom you can work collaboratively in your journey of growth and healing.

Limited new client sessions available. We help empower women and couples to find their strongest authentic self. Are you are feeling lost in all the different roles in your life? Are you feeling like you have created a life that you thought should make you happy, but you're not? Are you feeling alone in your relationship(s). Are you feeling overwhelmed, on edge and unable to rest or engage in self care? Do you feel like you make everyone else's needs a priority, and yours get lost? Are you feeling too emotional or sensitive? We can help you find fulfillment, contentment and internal strength!

I am primarily looking to work with children and adolescents, but I work with clients of any age. We can work together to discover the root of your challenges and then design a treatment plan that fits with your goals. If you are stuck or don't know where to start, we will start there and move forward with purpose.

I offer support for my clients to develop coping skills, reduce stress, improve self-esteem and create healthier relationships through better communication. My ideal clients include families, couples, children and adolescents having difficulty understanding each other and feeling overwhelmed with the increasing demands of work, home and school. By working with families I can address underlying issues of conflict, stress, anxiety, fear, depression, etc. I address the many difficulties or obstacles preventing them to function effectively in daily life and appreciate each other.

Do you wish to be happy again, and get back control of your life? Has your self esteem plummeted so that daily functioning has become difficult? Has anxiety, depression and anger taken control of you and won't let you function in peace? My ideal adult client is the multitasking adult, often juggling multiple tasks but are unable to cope with their own anger, anxiety, sadness, or stress which seem to be controlling their lives. My ideal adolescent client is one who is dealing with impulsivity, anger, anxiety, peer relations, self esteem issues or are just too depressed to pay attention to their important last years of school.

We, as human beings, have our habitual way to think, feel, and behave which may not always help us cope well. We may feel stuck in the past, fearful for the unknown future, and not being able to be present in the moment. Yet, the present is the only time that we can do something to make a change and feel better. We can stop struggling and begin to practice acceptance and grow through our experiences. In the practice of mindfulness, we are able to observe and become aware of the attachment to our habitual pattern of unhelpful thoughts and be present in the now moment by cultivating a non-judgmental mind and a new beginner's mind.
